As we reported yesterday, our Lady has been delayed in returning because she has stayed to help her parents out. As you remember, her dad, our Big Guy, is recovering for what he calls his awesome adventure (a very serious medical issue he was lucky to survive), and during her visit our Grammie got kidney stones. Our Grammie is an expert at the stones and while she hasn't had one for some time (she thinks close to 20 years), she estimates she has had over 100 in her lifetime. Lady is doing her best to keep her parents alive.
The mischief we would like to report today is that we know she is loving another. Bella, Roxy and Dui said it was ok if she didn't come home smelling like another. She is going to. Her parents have an 8.5 year old black lab named Tendra (named after Lady and her sister - it is the last 3 letters of Lady's name and the last 3 of Aunt C's name). Lady has confessed to us that she has been taking Tendra on daily walks (although with her arthritis Tendra can't walk nearly as far as us), and engaging in other activities to meet Tendra's daily needs. We know Tendra has been getting pets and giving kisses.
Lady did say we are much better at posing for pictures than Tendra. She could barely get Tenny to sit still. She says this is the best she could do. Tendra also kept licking the phone. Lady said it was funny.
Lady has assured us she loves us best and misses us (she has FaceTimed us). She assures us she is heading home tomorrow . . . . . . . .we will see!

ReplyDeleteI just recommend you don't try holding your breaths L&P... you need to be around to witness The Return!!! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx (who sends a wee waggle to Tendra, too...)
She is cheating on you with another dog! What! She better bring home like 87 presents for each of you.
ReplyDeleteAww, Tenny looks sweet! I bet she misses your grandparents and just needs a little extra love right now!
ReplyDeleteI think Tendra needs some extra love right now if her daddy isn't doing well. I think that's forgivable.
ReplyDeleteTREATS!!!! Oh yes, demand serious amounts of TREATS as compensation!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLoves and licky kisses

Oh Lee and Phod we hope Grammie is feeling better each day and the stones have passed.
ReplyDeleteYour Lady is a very loving and devoted daughter which is obvious in how she loves and cares for you two. Tendra is a lucky pup to have your Lady's TLC
Safe travels to the Lady
Hugs madi and mom
Best of luck to Grammie and Big Guy with all their medical issues (everything happens at once in life). I'm sure with Lady looking after them they will be better in no time at all. Be good and I'm sure she'll be back to you guys in no time at all. Tendra is a cutie too. xxx
ReplyDeleteBless Lady for taking care of grammie and helping Tenny out. She's doing the best that she can and we know that she misses you and Phod, Hailey.
ReplyDeleteI knew 3 grandparents. I love them all any grandparents are pretty awsome.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
that's so nice to read about Tendra's name ;o) I'm glad your lady is back and I bet she missed you to da moon and back while she was not together with ya...
ReplyDeleteTendra looks like Joy and Bella, two black labs my mom cared for for years in our old neighborhood. My mom misses them so much, especially because Joy is getting older.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that your grandparents are having a difficult time. I'm sure Mom will be home ASAP. ♥
ReplyDeleteGail is saying that you should not give Lady a hard time about smelling of Tendra, 'cos she knows how important it can be to have a dog to pet when things get tough on the elderly parent front.
ReplyDeleteI, Bertie, think you could still give here a bit of a hard time anyway…
Toodle pip!
Bertie.
Safe travels to your mom!
ReplyDeleteCammie!
Well....at least it isn't a CAT! We hope Grammie and Big Guy are up and around very soon. We're sure they loved borrowing Lady from you.
ReplyDeleteWhile it's very admirable your mum is helping the grands I'd definitely work the sad eyes for being the recipients of massive treats. 😁
ReplyDeleteIt is good that she has Tendra. She can practice so she is perfect for you dogs
ReplyDeleteI think it is nice of Tenny to step in and let your Lady love her for now. We all know that doggies are the best medicine, so when your Lady is sad missing the two of you and Tenny has some time off from helping The Big Guy and his kidney stone expert, it's good your Lady can get a little walk and some doggie love in.
ReplyDeleteLove and licks,
Cupcake
Your mom is being an awesome daughter. And, I'm glad that she can give Tendra extra love while Tendra's mom and dad are having a rough time. I know that you two are her number one dogs - and that you're super generous to share your the Lady!
ReplyDeleteWe're glad your Grampa is doing better, and hope Gramma's kidney stones go away. It was nice to meet Tendra. Don't worry. Mom will be home before you know it.
ReplyDeleteTendra is very sweet. She makes us think a lot of the grands lab Gypsy who crossed the same day as Angel Ciara. It's Ok for Mom to love on her a bit - she is missing you all so much that this is helping her. Hope the folks are all doing better soon.

What a pretty girl, Tendra is, we are sure she just misses you all so much she needed somepuppy to love on!
ReplyDeleteWe sure hope your Mama is telling the truth this time and you get to see her tomorrow!!
Smileys!

Tenders is pawfect.
ReplyDeleteI know I don't when my huMom comes home with another dog's stink on her but then I get over it.
She's my huMom.

We sure do hope your grammie is feeling better and your mom is able to come home. Tendra is a beautiful dog and she reminds me very much of a black lab I had once.
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope your mom parents are doing better. I know you want your mom to come home not smelling of Tendra but I think she could be forgiven. After all, Tendra needed some loving too.
ReplyDeleteAs long as she is miserable without yous then you should forgive her.
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
How dare sheeee!!! She better bring you some nice toys ;)
ReplyDeleteIn the lady's defense, it is very hard to be near a furry baby without loving on her. Especially if your furry babies are not nearby. Try to consider it as the Lady missing you terribly.
